Eurasia Consulting Deems Bolsonaro as ‘Most Incompetent’ Leader in Fighting Covid-19
RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL – For Ian Bremmer, CEO of Eurasia, one of the world’s leading political risk research and consulting firms, Brazil’s President Jair Bolsonaro is “by far the most incompetent political leader in a democracy in his response to the coronavirus.”
Bremmer’s statement was posted on his Twitter account, where the analyst had already criticized Bolsonaro’s leadership on other occasions in the fight against the pandemic that has killed more than 13,000 people in Brazil.

In yesterday’s tweet, Bremmer commented on the resignation request of Minister of Health Nelson Teich, who had been in charge of the Ministry for 28 days.
“Two ministers of health have gone in less than a month. And in the midst of the pandemic,” the analyst said.
In recent months, Bremmer also criticized Bolsonaro’s skeptical stance on social isolation and said US President Donald Trump looks like Englishman Winston Churchill when compared to Bolsonaro.
